> All economic activity entails energy usage. As our energy sources change, our economy will likely evolve and adapt—perhaps in surprising ways.
> 
> Join us for the sixth and final conversation in conjunction with the recently released book Our Renewable Future: Laying the Path to 100% Clean Energy with Rob Dietz, former Executive Director of Center for Advancement of a Steady State Economy and author of Enough Is Enough: Building a Sustainable Economy in a World of Finite Resources and Joshua Farley, Fellow of the Gund Institute for Ecological Economics and co-author (with Herman Daly) of the foundation textbook Ecological Economics: Principles and Applications. Joined by Richard Heinberg and hosted by Asher Miller of Post Carbon Institute, we will discuss what the future of our economy might look like in a 100% renewable energy future and explore such important questions as:
> What are the implications for how human labor will be valued, and how jobs will change?
> Can the economy (measured by GDP) continue to grow if energy consumption and use of resources declines significantly?
> Is growth of GDP essential to a functioning economy and to human well being?
> Can capitalism survive in the era of climate change and energy transition? What would work better?
> Please join the live conversation on December 13. We’d love to hear your thoughts and questions, too.
